Windows Firewall service will not start, Error Code 5: Access Denied

Hey guys,
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.
I can not start Windows Firewall, Diagnostic Policy Service, Diagnostic Service Host, or Diagnostic System Host. When I try and start them manually in services.msc, it gives me Error Code 5: Access denied. Both BFE and Windows Firewall Authorization driver are running. I am logged in as an administrator, and I have already allowed full control of these services for the Administrator accounts and the user "SYSTEM" in Regedit. If you need more information, please let me know. This is my first post, so I don't know if there is any other information that you need. Thanks!

I recently installed a new printer Canon PIXMA MX and I cannot share denied 5 Access Error for firewall: Windows start Cant BFE is the printer with other laptops because the Windows Firewall cannot be started I went looking for help online and as a Cant start BFE for Windows firewall: Error 5 Access is denied result I went into the dependency services and I encounter this roadblock I don't know where the problem started but several months ago I switched my antiviral from Avast free version to AVG subscription I then thought I would install a free firewall so I tried both Comodo and Zone Alarm but each one of those seemed to reek havoc on my system and I ended up doing a system restore to get things back to normal I have also used Revo uninstaller free version to remove the residuals of these programs I tried reinstalling the Windows Firewall but that did nothing I have a Netgear N Router in front of the system I would appreciate any help I don't want to do a complete reformatting of the hard drive Is there any way to fix this that isn't terribly complicated I've looked at solutions that require going in and editing the registry but I am VERY hesitant to do this since I am a novice Thank you all

I am using Windows 7 Home Basic 32 bit.Realtime Protection: Panda Cloud AV, Windows Firewall, Windows Defender, Winpatrol Plus, Sandboxie and No Autorun.The problem started after I uninstalled 3 other resident products.1. MSE 2 beta2. MBAM Pro3. Trend Micro Web Protection Add-on.I got the error in Action Center.I went to services and tried to manually start the service. There I got the error message.I found an old post, describing the same problem.http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic279320.html

Most third party security AV/AS software will disable Windows security software in favor of their own. This is normal. Using more than one anti-virus security program at one time is not recommended. They can interfere with each other giving you gaps in coverage, cause conflicts that lead to system crashes, and tend to slow your system down by using excessive resources. Pick one that you like and stick with it.

As the title says, I can't seem to start the base filtering service. every time I try, it ends up with the same 'access is denied' error. I have poked around on the Internet for this error, found multiple solutions on different sites, but none seems to have worked for me, so here I am starting my own thread.

Go to Start/Search and type services.msc. Right click Base Filtering Engine Service and choose Properties. Go to the Logon tab. Logon as This Account and choose Local Service. click OK, go to the Dependencies tab make sure RPC is showing. Go back to General tab and choose Automatic for Startup type. and Start the service.

Hello,

Looking at my computer, for me it is stopped, and when I try to start it, I get the same error message. My computer is working fine, so I think this is not your original problem. However, some websites suggest that it should be started. I am slightly sceptical as to the accuracy of this information, but here is the link to this file on my favourite website for looking these things up: Diagnostic Service Host - Process and Service wiki

Hi, my stepmothers laptop is currently running windows 7 with mcafee antivirus. Its not allowing the connection to the internet. Ive tried running the diagnostics and it brings up the firewall is preventing the internet. I went through and checked the ports and properties. Still no connection.

I did the services.msc and tried to actually stop and restart the windows firewall and it brings up Windows could not stop the Windows Firewall on Local Computer. Error 5: access denied.

She is the admin on this laptop and it seems to still have limited access to certain properties such as turning on and off the firewall. i tried shutting off mcafee's firewall and then getting into the windows firewall and still no luck.

I'm also wondering if the Software from the HP support assistant is causing some sort of confliction.

There have been reported connectivity problems from McAfee users and the best solution is to fully uninstall it How to uninstall or reinstall supported McAfee products using the Consumer Products Removal tool (MCPR) and this is the link for the MCPR and it's advocated that the tool is run twice after the uninstall via Progs and Features http://download.mcafee.com/products/...tches/MCPR.exe

You are also better off to leave it off and use something like MSE Microsoft Security Essentials | Protect against viruses, spyware, and other malware as McAfee isn't the best of AVs.

Hi,i have two computers, my main desktop and a laptop. For my work i sync my files between the two over my home network using Free File Sync (ffs).

For some reason ffs will sync across from my laptop to my desktop but not from my desktop to laptop. All the sync settings are set to copy both ways, ffs is running as admin and i am the only user of both computers so they are both running as admin.I have set up homegroup between the two and i can easily copy any file type between both computers both ways. Permissions as far as i can tell are set to allow home groups, admins and all users. But ffs still will only sync one way from my desktop to my laptop... any ideas? (i am given the: windows error code 5: access denied message whenever i click 'sync')

I have a VB script that issues StartService. This works fine under XP. It also works under Win7, but only if I run it as Administrator. If I run it as a another user with Administrator rights, it fails with "Access Denied".

Is there any way to use StartService without having to run as Administrator?

Hi when i try to run my windows XP sp2 windows firewall to stop it from disabling my connections. i get the message "Windows firewall cannot be displayed because the associated service is not running. Do you want to start the Windows firewall/internet connection Sharing (ICS) service?" i click yes then i get "Windows cannot start the Windows firewall/internet connection sharing (ICS) service.". i then went start>run>services.msc and found that when i try to manually run the Windows firewall/ICS i get this message "Could not start the WF/ICS service on Local Computer. Error 1075 the dependancy service either does not exist or has been marked for deletion." Please help me. I just want to be able to open my ports and host Warcraft 3 games.

I have attempted to uninstall/reinstall McAfee antiVirus. I have found that Windows Firewall service is set to automatic but will not start, giving the error in the topic.

Hi,
I am trying to execute psexec command to remote machine.
My command is
psexec -u domain\user -p password \\machineName -c abc.bat
I am trying from windows 7(64 bit) machine. The remote machines are xp and windows 7(32 and 64 bit).
In XP machines, it is working and also in some windows 7 machines. But in some windows 7 machines it give message-
"Could not start PsExec service on target machine.
Access is denied."

If I try to execute psexec command from XP machines, it works to all machines.
Suddenly what happen I do not know but one of the windows 7 machine( where psexec was not starting) , psexec started. but not in other machines.
Now I am very much confuse here exactly what happen. and what is the issue.
Please help. It urgent.
Thanks.

A:Could not start PsExec service on target machine. Access is denied.

Hi,

When opening the Command Prompt, please right click it and run as Administrator. Meanwhile, make sure the user has administrator privileges on target PC. If the issue
persists, try to disable UAC on both sides.

As far as I know the Security Level on Windows 7 is higher than the level on Windows XP. Therefore, 'psexec' works to all machines.

Best Regards,

Niki

Somebody Please help. I have been trying to get my windows firewall working and have spent hours searching forums. I came across a thread that describes exactly what is happening with my machine. Windows Firewall Authorization Driver - not present, not working, etc. I really dont want to format this machine. I have gotten as far as running 317 security check

After doing those two things are posting the zip file that I'm going to request, come back. I will answer no questions until these two tasks have been complested.

My computer told me it was time to update my graphics driver which I did. however I ended up trying to install the driver that was already on my pc as it was up to date. Subsequently my graphics driver fails to work. I have uninstalled it and tried to reinstall but I get the message "error code 28 access denied". further more I performed several system restore and each time I role back, mozilla firefox fails to work as does internet explorer, they both crash. (I therefore have no internet access as I'm on a resnet and need to log in to use the internet ) Advice anyone please.

I have used this link Diagnose and fix Windows Firewall service problems automatically and downloaded the fixer. This told me that the problem may be occurring because of a group policy or Norton security firewall program. I do not know how to change either of these. Any sort of help would be much appreciated.

A:Error Code 5. Firewall. Firewall does not start.

Do you have norton security installed?

If so it uses its own firewall, in which case you do not need windows firewall on. You should not run more then one firewall at a time.

I'm having the same issue.. I don't know when it has started to happen, but I had to go there after re-installing VirtualBox and the internet had gone crazy right after resetting the network settings.. GRRR

Firstly apologies if this is in the wrong section - noob in this forum System Win Ultimate x on an HP Pavilion DV My account is the only proper user account on the laptop and is an admin account In short when trying to do a system restore it come up with an error that the Volume Shadow Copy Service was not working though that error (access Volume Copy when (VSS) service denied) Shadow starting Error 5 code is irrelevant for the purposes of this question as I later Error 5 (access denied) when starting Volume Shadow Copy service (VSS) managed to run system restore in safe mode from an age old restore point When checking services msc run as admin VSS was off and was on manual Changed it to automatic and then when I tried clicking start the following error came up Windows could not start the Volume Shadow Copy service on Local Computer Error Access is denied I have since tried everything I can possibly think Error 5 (access denied) when starting Volume Shadow Copy service (VSS) of including setting it back and forth between manual amp auto to get the service to start to no avail Solutions tried so far - net start vss in elevated cmd - returns the same error error access is Error 5 (access denied) when starting Volume Shadow Copy service (VSS) denied - vssvc exe in elevated cmd - same - changed permissions to full control for myself admin group and NETWORK SERVICE which I had to add for System folder and for vssvc exe but no change - changed permissions to full control for myself admin group and NETWORK SERVICE which I again had to add for VSS in regedit opened as admin still nothing - even tried restarting explorer exe from an elevated cmd and an elevated task manager and did the permissions again - still nothing The only thing I haven't done yet is run an sfc scan but tbh I doubt that'll fix anything It also seems that VSS has been off for a while as my last restore point was approx months ago and I've installed things since Any suggestions ideas would be very much appreciated as I'm going nuts with this now Thank you

I tried to use the dotnet cleanup tool in safe mode that failed and now I cannot get out of safe mode! whenever I try to uncheck "safeboot" I get

msconfig message is "An Access Denied error was returned while attempting to change a service. You may need to log on using an Administrator account to make the specified changes.". but there is only one user account and it IS administrator!!!

No, I do NOT have any HP hardware or software as Google points the problem to. Running Windows XP sp3 with POS Ready updates. Emachines D2244

please help me fix!!!

A:MSconfig: An Access Denied error was returned while attempting to change a service

Boot into Safe Mode and boot into the built in Administrator account. If you log in automatically, log out and log in as Built in Administrator. If that fails, then in msconfig, on the General tab, make sure Normal boot is checked. Then go to the Boot.ini tab, press Check all Boot paths, if that still fails. If you made the change to go into Safe Mode in msconfig and then you can't get back, you can edit your c:\boot.ini file and remove the /safeboot:minimal switch.You can get their by right clicking My Computer, Properties, Advanced, Startup and Recovery, Settings, Edit (this opens Notepad on your boot.ini file), make the adjustment to remove the /safeboot:minimal parameter, File, Save.

Hello Following a recent Windows Update Windows Firewall on my Windows system was disabled Upon denied BFE Windows access Firewall be cannot started, and attempting to start the firewall through the services msc dialog I receive an error code informing that Windows Firewall and BFE cannot be started, access denied the dependency service or group failed to start After doing some googling to attempt to resolve the issue I found the dependency service the Base Filtering Engine BFE was not active When attempting to start the BFE service I am stopped with an error indicating that access is denied I am unable to figure out why access to the BFE service should be denied since this account is the only account on the computer and has administrator privileges Because of these issues with the firewall I am unable to access the internet and am creating this thread through a separate laptop computer In a potentially related issue Windows is not quot activated quot though I had activated it approximately a year earlier Because of this I am unable to access my Microsoft Office programs I believe that I am unable to activate windows due to a lack of internet connectivity caused by the above firewall issue Any help would be appreciated My next step is to take the computer into a nearby service depot and pay the requisite charges Thank you

After running windows in safe mode to test something my firewall stopped working. I need some help since i could not find anything related to this issue on Win10. When i try to initialize windows Firewall service i get the message error 1068 and when i try to run it through Control Painel i get another message error with the code 0x8007042c.Anyone know what can be causing that?

The firewall service could be turned off/stopped - check this by searching for 'services' in the search bar. If the Windows firewall service is stopped, try and start it or if it is already running, try restarting it.

I'm not sure how long it has been this way because I have not noticed anything else abnormal going on but when I tried to access my firewall yesterday it said it was not set to the recommended settings. When I attempted to open it to fix this I got Error Code 0x80070424 with the message "Windows Firewall can't change some of your settings". I ran several Malware and anti-virus scans and my system now comes up clean but this is still the case. I looked on several forums for other people having the same problem and tried a few things that fixed it for them but nothing happened on my end. I saw there were a few topics started here regarding the same issue but I didn't want to start editing my registry on my own without some guidance. Thanks...

Hello I have been trying to enable the search feature on my windows -bit machine but when I attempt to do so or use indexing nothing seems to happen When I try to enable windows search in services I get quot Windows could not start the Windows Search service on Local Computer - error access denied quot When I detect problems in search and indexing it tells me windows search service is not running but lists the error as not fixed When I try to manually add a config folder in the ProgramData - Microsoft - Search - Data folder it erases itself after a few seconds This account has full admin control I don't get it I even tried to do this through Search Access - Windows Denied? Service/Indexing the hidden admin account This laptop is only a month old but I can't turn the search feature on I think maybe if I modify it to not include the external in indexing it would not mess up but I can't even touch the modify button without enabling windows search which is currently impossible Any help

An attempt to upgrade Win7H&P-64 to Windows 10 resulted in Win 7 being restored. Restored a system image, ran sfc /scannow & chkdsk /f to end up with:The Peer Name Resolution Protocol cloud did not start because the creation of the default identity failed with error code: 0x80070005.

I have tried all the fixes mentioned at Can't start Peer Name Resolution Protocol. Nothing has worked:deleting C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\...\idstore.sstLeave HomeGroup => couldn't be donedeleting entries in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeysresetting password of Local Servicegrant Local Service full control of C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys

I could again restore the system image but strongly suspect this will only delay the inevitable need to solve this issue. Please advise.

Hi, I wonder what reg permissions you are referring to, error 5 is a non admin error. Could you go to start search and type:- cmd, right click on the returned cmd.exe and select "run as administrator" at the prompt (copy paste):-

I am having the same problems as this person http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f217/solved-windows-7-windows-firewall-not-working-bfe-access-denied-635246.html, I followed all the steps this person did but I am still having a problem with starting my BFE.

I always had Firewall turned off, but then I realised it's a quite useful thing. So when I checked it, it said: "Windows Firewall is not using the recommended settings to protect your computer." When I press "Use recommended settings" nothing happens. Then I checked services and Base Filtering Engine is running well, but Windows Firewall service can't start. It says: "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 5."

I have no idea how to fix this (I have already downloaded Microsoft Windows Firewall fixer, didn't help)... Any suggestions?

A:Windows Firewall service won't start

Have you checked that the windows firewall authorisation driver is running in device manager?You need to view hidden devices and its in the plug and play section.hope this helps.

When I try to turn it on, it just keeps loading and eventually do nothing.And when I try to start the service in the "Services.msc" I get the error:

Tranlation: 'Can't start the Windows Firewall on yout Local computer. Consult the systemlogs for more information. If this is not a service of Microsoft, you have to contact the manufacturer of the service. Mention than the specific error 5.'

I don't have a clue what the systemlogs are or what I can do with it, and I tried many solutions given on the internet but none has worked for me yet. Please help me with this awful error.

A:Can't start Windows Firewall service

In the search box next to Start button, type ser > press Enter.You are now on Services window > scroll down to Windows Firewall > click it.Under Status ................................. it should be Running.Under Startup type...................... it should be Automatic.If that is not what you see, left side, click Restart the service.Also right click at Windows Firewall > Properties ......................at Startup type, click the pointer and select Automaticat Service status, click Start.Click OK when done.

At first it did not appear on the services .msc list, so I followed balon's advice to add it to the registry in this older thread Unable to start Windows Firewall

Now the firewall service is in the list but when I try to start it, I keep getting an error message:

Quote:
Windows could not start the Windows Firewall on Local Computer. For more information review the System Event Log. If this is a non-microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 5.

A:Cannot start windows firewall service

Why not dump the Windows 7 Firewall and use any one of the free third party firewalls. I would recommend Comodo.

I'm sure this problem has been addressed before. After service pack 2 for xp, our windows firewall stopped working. When you try to access it in the control panel, it says that it is unable to open because the service is not running. I click yes to turn it on, and it says that the ICS service could not be started.

I tried fixing it a couple months ago, goofed around with winsock and tried a couple other things, couldn't get it to work so I gave up and downloaded zone alarm.

I just remembered about it the other day, and while being bored, I wanted to try and get it working again, even if I don't need to use it, I still like everything running correctly.

Any suggestions?

A:Windows Firewall, cannot start ICS service

Try the following:

Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services...

Scroll down to Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing, double click the entry. You should now see the properties box for ICS; in the drop-down box next to 'Startup type' be sure that Automatic is the chosen option, click Apply, close everything out and re-boot - now check to see if your firewall is available.

If that doesn't work, you may need to run an inplace install (Repair). If this is the case then follow These instructions.

A:Windows Firewall/ICS service cannot start

Update on this system, the guy ran a Windows Repair after all this and now we have a BSOD after the Windows loading screen, code 0x07E, and computer restarts. When booting into Safe Mode I get "Windows XP Setup cannot run under Safe Mode. Setup will restart now."

Okay, I am a pretty technical user, and I am really struggling with this issue, and I wasn't 100% sure which section to post this in. I used to share videos over my network with multiple xboxs and a ps3. I recently installed Norton Internet Security on my system, and after doing so, I was not able to stream videos anymore. I tried changing firewall settings, and permissions and such, but could not get it to work, so I uninstalled NIS from my system. After doing so, the Windows 7 firewall service will not start. If i look at the event log, it gives me Event ID 7024 : The Windows Firewall service terminated with service-specific error Access is denied.. I have run the norton removal tool, and this has not fixed the problem.

A:Windows 7 firewall service will not start. Event ID 7024

A:Failed to schedule Software Protection service for re-start at 2113-01-12T17:08:03Z. Error Code: 0x80041316 every few seconds.

Delete the 3 files from C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Microsoft\Windows\SoftwareProtectionPlatform.
From the Windows DVD or ISO file go to Sources and use 7-ZIP to extract the install.wim file.
Copy the 3 original files from extracted install.wim (Windows\System32\Tasks\Microsoft\Windows\SoftwareProtectionPlatform) to a suitable location and add to each of them the .xml extension.
Import the 3 .xml files in Task Scheduler - Microsoft - Windows - SoftwareProtectionPlatform and restart the system.
Hope it helps!

The firewall service will not start at all. I also have Trend Mirco PC-cillin and it won't allow me to view my "Personal Firewall" setting. If anyone knows what could be the problem, the help would be appreciated.

When did this problem begin? What changes did you make to your system (hardware, software, updates)?

To assist in the problem, we need you to download HijackThis (http://www.merijn.org/files/hijackthis.zip). Extract it to a folder like C:\Program Files\HijackThis. Run it, and select 'Scan'. Do not fix anything yet, just select 'Save log', and copy the contents of the log to your next post.

The prime suspect for anything that turns off the firewall is malware so you need to scan with all your anti-malware utilities as soon as possible.

I am having a problem Some of our users are getting infected with trojan zeroaccess. After I have removed the trojan i am unable to start the firewall service. I noticed that the dependencies cannot start either. I get access denied. The only work around i found is to do a system restore pre infection.thanksMike

A:Access Denied Firewall

Is there a question Mike? you seem to know the answer already.

zeroaccess is particularly nasty, and I'd be doing the same thing if my users got it.

edit: this removal guide shows a way to completely remove it, it's pretty resilient and can linger even after you think it's out. Personally I would reformat any critical machines that got this infection.

Found out windows firewall is not running. Tried to fix it with Microsofts help for error 0x8007042c.

I go into services get BFE started. Try to start firewall and get error code 5.

Malwarebytes and AVG scans show no infections.

Where do I go from here?

Thanks, Dorkgeez

Mod Edit;Moved to the Am I Infected forum~ boopmeI have been unable to turn on my firewall (or make any adjustments to the settings whatsoever).

My PC has been infected by some kind of virus that keeps coming back even after my anti virus has removed it(persistent). So I searched Google for some help using the virus name as the keyword, on how to remove the virus and I ran into one of bleepingcomps tuts. It told me to run combofix, so I run it. And after I reboot the virus is gone. But then I checked my firewall and it showed the error.

My PC was infected by the WIN 7 Security Malware? I used Malwarebyte's Software and AVG antivirus to get rid of it. I have deleted AVG and downloaded Microsoft Security Esstentials. I am trying to get my firewall on as well as my security center. I have used spybot to try to help my problem as well as Free Window Registry Repair. Both did not help.

I went on the instructions and attempted to get DDS.scr but it would not install. So i used RSIT and have attached the following files. Thanks in advance.http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic241293.html that was the DDS/ RSIT forum i read.

I have a Windows 7 64-bit laptop.

As posted earlier I have encountered a serious problem accessing my hard drive and booting up Windows windows access on XP error is denied XP I am running windows XP on a Dell dimension workstation As mentioned in my previous posting I am getting the infamous blue screen of death with the error message x B I suspect that I am a victim of a virus As suggested I ran a repair from a Windows CD access is denied error on windows XP recovery disk and it seemed to run okay and indicated that everything was fine however when I rebooted I still received the same old blue screen As mentioned in my previous post Help Mode is of no help as the options all lead me back to the blue screen Therefore I tried something different I booted up from the Windows Recovery CD and when prompted hit the letter R on the first screen which placed me into a C windows prompt From there I was able to go to the root directory and I was able to list the access is denied error on windows XP folders that have my data in them However when I attempted to open these folders I received an error access is denied error on windows XP message of quot Access is denied quot and could go no further I checked the attributes on these directories and they are only showing an attribute of d directory I tried different things with the attrib command to see if I could get around the access problem but to no avail I ran a chkdsk p and it came back indicating that there were no problems I am running out of options and am quickly reaching the point where I am considering doing a complete reinstall of windows however I don t want to lose my data Can anyone suggest how I might be able to access my data files and skirt around that quot access is denied quot message Thank you nbsp
